overhead crane, also known as a bridge crane, is a type of industrial lifting equipment designed to move heavy loads in a horizontal direction across a workshop, warehouse, or yard.
2-ton overhead crane refers to an overhead crane that is capable of lifting and moving loads up to 2 tons (or 2000 kilograms) in weight. This type of crane is typically used in manufacturing or maintenance applications.
Components of 2-ton overhead crane
Crane Runway: This is the structure on which the crane moves. It's usually made up of rails, beams, brackets, and supports.
Bridge: This is the horizontal structure that carries the trolley across the runway. It spans the width of the runway and moves back and forth along it.
Hoist/Trolley: The hoist is the lifting device that travels along the bridge and lifts or lowers the load. It usually includes a wire rope, chain, or belt to lift the load, and a hook or other device to secure it.
Controls: These are the devices used to operate the crane. They may be wired or wireless, and may include switches, joysticks, buttons, or touchscreen interfaces.
Power Supply: Overhead cranes can be powered by electricity, hydraulics, or pneumatics. Electric overhead cranes are most common, especially for indoor use.
End Trucks: These are located on either side of the bridge and house the wheels that enable the horizontal movement of the crane along the runway.
Tpye of 2-ton overhead crane
1.Single Girder Overhead Crane: This type of crane has one beam (or girder) that the trolley and hoist run along. They're typically used in light to medium duty work due to their simpler, lighter design.
2. Double Girder Overhead Crane: This crane has two parallel beams that the trolley and hoist run on. This type of design offers better load capacity and span, and is used for heavier-duty applications.
3. Top Running Overhead Crane: In this type, the crane travels on top of the runway beams, providing maximum lift height since the hoist is located between the top of the runway and the underside of the bridge.
4. Under Running (or Underhung) Overhead Crane: Here, the crane travels underneath the runway beams. This design is often used in smaller facilities or where maximizing floor space is important.
The most common configuration for a 2-ton bridge crane is the top running single girder design. In this design, the crane's end trucks move along the top of the runway system. This configuration allows for maximum lifting height within a given facility.
However, there are also other configurations available depending on the specific needs of a facility. For instance, a double girder design can provide greater stability for certain applications, and an under running or underhung design, where the crane travels beneath the runway beams, can be used in facilities where maximizing floor space is a high priority. Each of these configurations has its own advantages and can be selected based on the specific operational requirements of the workspace.
